Summary: This article is devoted to the anthroponymic system of the little-studied Uncle’s dream by Dostoevsky. The author of the work notes that the toponym Mordasov acts as an organizing element for the anthroponymicon of the story. Analysis of the material allows us to conclude that Dostoevsky used semantically marked units the disclosure of which is due not only to the context of the novel but also to the context of the epoch depicted by the writer. The anthroponyms systematically included in the provincial chronotope of the novel Uncle’s dream and correlated in the writer’s creative laboratory with the images of the characters created by him become capacious and laconic characteristics, the understanding of which contributes to a deeper reading of the work of art. For Dostoevsky’s characters strives to realize its own name, as evidenced by numerous examples of their reflections on the influence of name on life and destiny. Some onomastic units of the story are autobiographical, for example, toponym Mordasov, anthroponym Kallist Stanislavovich. When the category of the characters of F. M. Dostoevsky uses such methods as the introduction to the text of the socially significant of names (Boroduev), expressive painted of names (Moskaleva, Mozglyakov), as well as reception of language play (Lawrenty-Terenty).
